abstract:
Three goals are achieved in this article: first, the publication of a previously unknown 1318 charter from the old county of Radnorshire; second, the content of the charter is used ‘to people’ the landscape of fourteenth-century eastern Radnorshire in much greater detail than previously possible; third, an argument is made for the voluntary registration of similar documents in private hands, leading to the creation of a free-access online register.

Molyneaux, George, “The Ordinance concerning the Dunsæte and the Anglo-Welsh frontier in the late tenth and eleventh centuries”, Anglo-Saxon England 40 (2011): 249–272.
abstract:
The Ordinance concerning the Dunsæte sets out regulations for dealings between the English and Welsh in some part of the frontier between these two peoples. The text is widely assumed to be from the second quarter of the tenth century, but this article argues for a late-tenth- or eleventh-century date. The Ordinance envisages trade and prescribes procedures to settle disputes: it thus reveals cordial contacts between those dwelling along the frontier. This offers an alternative perspective to the focus on kings and conflicts found in many modern accounts of relations between the English and Welsh in the early medieval period.

Howlett, David [ed. and tr.], Sealed from within: self-authenticating Insular charters, Dublin: Four Courts Press, 1999.
abstract:
From original manuscripts David Howlett edits, translates, and analyses twenty-four Latin charters – English, Welsh, Cornish, Irish, Scottish, and Hebridean – from the 7th century to the 15th, as monuments of thought and composition parallel to the literary and epigraphic traditions of these islands. This revolutionary analysis presents charters of local variety but underlying unity, in which complex self-authenticating mathematical structures produce works of art of astonishing and apprehensible beauty.
